Kedge Keep

Overview

Kedge Keep is the most unique dungeon across the three continents of Norrath. The entire ancient city is under water. Adventuring here requires either a magical item that grants the ability to breathe underwater, or the aid of a friendly druid. The kedge were a highly intelligent fish-like race of people who studied science and magic, but only one has survived. His name is Phinigel Autropos, and he is considered by many to be the most powerful wizard in the world; rivaled only by Al'Kabor. The city is now overrun with sharks and other aquatic creatures that threaten even the most experienced adventurers. A society of beautiful mermaids also live here, formerly on their own accord, but now under the enchantment of Phinigel. Within the ruins, a temple to Prexus the Ocean Lord can be found, which tends to make historians believe the Kedge honored Prexus rather than the Triumvirate of Water.

Phinigel Autropos sought to become the greatest wizard the world had ever seen. He thirsted for knowledge and even created a spell that would allow to leave the water for short periods of time in order to learn from other cultures. After years of study, Phinigel attempted to cast a spell in the Temple of Prexus; one that would show his people his true magnificence. The maelstrom of arcane power that Phinigel unleashsed killed everyone in the city. Historians believe that the power summoned by Phinigel was that of Prexus himself, and the power was unbearable for mortal souls. Phinigel, somehow surviving the blast, retreated to the depths of the city. Over the decades, Phinigel's guilt turned to rage. Adventurers of many types now search for him, as he holds many powerful artifacts.
